Today, I’m joined by Coach Ivan, who’s flown in all the way from Australia to spend a few days with us here in the UK. While he’s over, we decided to hit record on a conversation we’ve been having behind the scenes — all about the concept of performance without pressure.
For most of my life, I’ve thrived on pressure. Big goals. High stakes. All-or-nothing thinking. It’s driven a lot of what I’ve a...
Hey, it’s Akash here, and on this week’s episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m bringing back a classic - a rerun of what’s still the most popular team episode we’ve ever recorded.
It’s called “What Typical Mindfulness Is Missing”, and over the years, it’s racked up tens of thousands of downloads. I think it struck it chord when it dropped because it tackled a conversation we have often behind the scen...

Most high achievers are crushing it in their career but are failing in fitness. Today, we’re breaking down six brutal truths every high achiever needs to hear about their health and fitness.

Today I’m joined by my wife Chandni for a long-awaited episode on the podcast where we talk about what life has been like over the past 12 months since the last time we recorded in Thailand on episode 377. Inside we talk about having a near 2 year old daughter, day to day routines, habit changes, boundaries, fitness and lots more, along with a little announcement at the end.
Twice per week, we hold Coaching Calls for our members. One of those is a live call for them to ask questions to our coaching team, as well as connect with other RNTers. The other is some of our team discussing relevant topics for our member’s goals.
I’ve pulled together some clips from those calls from the last few months to give you an insight into some topics that can really help you in your journey.
